Re: Zuiko Digital (Olympus) 12-60mm f2.8-4.0

Although this is an older post, I thought I'd throw my two bits in.

My son received his E-3 with 12-60 lens about two weeks ago. We've given it a pretty decent work out since its arrival. I have to say that this lens is SHARP. Very difficult, if not impossible, to tell the difference between the 12-60 images and those from the 50 mm macro. It looks like we've doubled the Mp in camera.

Focus has to be experienced to be believed. We've tried it on his 410 and my 510 as well. Extremely fast. Hunting? What is that?

I thought the images I've gotten with the kit lens (14-42) were pretty decent but this thing is head and shoulders above that lens.
